Well make 2 copies of the C images and name them "gnome-mime-text-x-c.png" and "gnome-mime-text-x-csrc.png" C++ should be named "gnome-mime-text-x-c++.png" and "gnome-mime-text-x-c++src.png" 2.) Yeah you may find the icons are a little big in places, to adjust this, change the image size to the size of all the images in that directory. To do that open the image in gimp and go to image->scale image and change to the appropriate size. I couldn't size it for you because all the icon sets use different resolutions for their icons. 1.) Well make 2 copies of the C images and name them “gnome-mime-text-x-c.png” and “gnome-mime-text-x-csrc.png”

C++ should be named “gnome-mime-text-x-c++.png” and “gnome-mime-text-x-c++src.png”

I'm missing something, but what? 2) Crashbit icon set has icon folders for 16x16 128x128 and 192x192 pixels. I wonder if it is any problem replacing those mimetypes icons with your 256x256 icons (which I did)? Thanks for your answer.

Do you mean they are symbolic links in the crashbit icon set? If thats what you mean then what you need to do is one of the following 1.) Delete the symbolic link and just replace with the appropriate image giving it the same name as the link or 2.) Find the image the symbolic link links too, and replace that image which will in turn replace the symbolic link image 2. I can make different sizes of the icons, what did you need it for? Cheers, Gaunt Heya Studentz

I used crashbit as my default icon set. 1-The mimetypes icons for programing have the same icon image which are a symbolic link of one icon. Any suggestion ? 2-The icons are 256*256.It's any chance to get other resolutions? Thanks Nice work. I used crashbit as my default icon set.

Unfortunately I don't really understand the installation guide. I can easily rename and compress files and folders but I don't know what is the "main directory" or where to find the "devices" and "mimetype" folders or the meaning of 128*128 scalable. It would be unfair to ask you to rewrite the whole thing but I would be grateful if you could guide me to a link where these instruction are explained in more detail. Thank you.
